See moreThe Holloboy Series is a dark romance series from one of the biggest dark romance authors on BookTok and Bookstagram today. This is for fans of Rina Kent and Penelope Douglas.
From Monty Jay comes a gripping dark romance where vengeance resurfaces, loyalties are tested, and obsession turns deadly.
For two years, there was peaceβfragile, fleeting, and built on buried secrets. But the past refuses to stay dead. Old enemies rise with renewed hunger for destruction, forcing a return to the one place that started it all: Ponderosa Springs.
With no choice but to face what they left behind, the stakes are higher than ever. This time, it isn't just the Hollow Boys in danger.
It's her.
Coraline Whittaker is marked by a past she can't escape and a man who refuses to let her go. Reluctantly, she forms an alliance with someone just as dangerousβsomeone who understands vengeance all too well. Bound by a shared enemy, they strike a fragile pact: protect each other, survive the storm, and put an end to the man haunting her life.
But as the threat closes in, their connection begins to blur the line between protection and possession. What starts as necessity quickly spirals into something deeper, darker, and far more consuming.
Because this time, it isn't just revenge driving him.
It's her.
As secrets unravel and past sins resurface, one question remainsβwill they break free from the darkness, or will it claim them both?
